One of the advantages of local combat is familiarity with the terrain. In fact, this forest is not dense, and there is a shortcut road to pass. If you can pass it smoothly, you can save the time of one or two hourglasses.

In the woods, of course, torches do not work. However, there are many experienced veterans here. Some of the great swordsmen with fighting spirit emitted a faint light, arranging one at intervals, and also taking turns to replace them. This will not be detected from a distance, and it will be able to guide the troops forward.

The troops meandered along the line, all leading their horses forward. Seeing that Du Lilan beside her was already very tired, Dipu hugged her in distress and carried her on his back. Finding that Du Lilan was struggling slightly, Dipu's arms tightened.

"If you're tired, you can ride a horse. Dipp said softly.

Du Lilan found that she seemed to be tightly tied to Dipu's body, so she stopped struggling, buried her face deep in Dipu's back, smelled the annoying and liking man's breath, gradually forgot her shyness, and said softly: "I'm afraid it's not good, they're all leading the horses away, and they're all looking at you." ”

These few words warmed Dipu's heart for a while, and this little girl's heart was completely on herself. Dipu smiled slightly: "I won't laugh at you." Don't forget, you're a magician, and magicians always have preferential treatment. And...... Who here would dare to say anything about my woman?"

"Giggles!" Du Lilan chuckled softly, her heart full of sweetness. Sneaking a look around, and seeing that no one was paying attention, he couldn't help but kiss the back of Dip's neck.

At this time, Tipu felt a little guilty. A much-loved girl actually has to suffer on the battlefield. And after meeting himself, it seems that he has been facing a battle......

Dipu's heart is turning a thousand times. Suddenly, the communications soldier hurriedly ran over: "My lord! There is an enemy situation ahead!"

......

The enemy situation was discovered by a few scouts at the front of the team. The team immediately stopped. Dipu took several major officers with him. Hurrying over the top of the group to the front, he saw several spearheads lying behind a ridge.

Dipu quietly passed. When the probe looked at it, he found that there was a long row of "fire dragons" on the road at the bottom of the mountain. There are armies that are also marching at night with torches. Dip looked at it, and it seemed that there was no end in sight, so he asked, "Have you scouted? What troops? How many?"

The scout in the lead hurriedly replied, "My lord, I just found out, and I don't dare to approach. But looking at the number of torches, there must be several thousand. ”

"And where does this road lead?"

"That's where we set out. We took a shortcut, and this is the main road. Two rows of large cars can be lined up side by side. ”

Dipu thought for a moment, not sure if this was the withdrawn Red Lion Duchy troops or the steppe barbarians. But in case it is an enemy, they must not be spared. General Cinnally's side was unprepared and would certainly not be prepared for a night attack in this direction. So he looked under the ridge, and found that the slope was still relatively gentle, and he could barely walk, so he ordered: "The troops are spread out, and quietly touch them." Send someone to the front to take a look. If it's the enemy, give the signal and we'll charge together. Be careful, don't alarm them!"

And Thompson on the side volunteered: "Then I'll come!"

The whole army sprang into action at once. A large number of warriors temporarily laid down their horses and sneaked across the ridge. Still unaware of it, Thompson suddenly turned into a ghost. It was as if it had disappeared into the night sky. And Dipu walked in the front row, and those around him were at least intermediate great sword masters. They weave nimbly through the woods, getting closer and closer to the road. Everyone held their breath. The footsteps are also very light and light.

"Bang bang bang ......" There were a few low sounds, and a few holy light bullets were raised. This was the signal that the appointment was made, and Thompson had spotted the enemy. And it is impossible for so many people to move without movement. At the same time, the enemy also noticed something strange in the woods: "There is an enemy!

The shouting was too late. The warriors around Dipu had already taken their bows and arrows in their hands, and aimed them in the direction of the torches to shoot at them. After firing several rounds in succession, they lowered their bows, changed their weapons, and rushed to the enemy in the road with a loud shout.

This sudden charge caught the steppe barbarians on the road by surprise. This stretch of road has become a complete mess. Most of the hundreds of steppe barbarians had already been killed and wounded, and few of the remaining resisted and fled in all directions, shouting and screaming.

As for the divided ranks of steppe barbarians, they wanted to fight at first, but more and more troops appeared on the ridge, and they poured down the mountain like a torrent, and seeing that the situation was not good, those steppe barbarians also joined the fleeing team.

However, in the panic, the road was completely blocked. The unsuspecting steppe barbarians behind were still moving forward, and the attacked steppe barbarians turned around and ran again, blocking the road in an instant.

Those who ran at the back were cut down by the warriors one by one. Seeing that they could no longer escape, the barbarians' bravery was also stimulated, and they turned around to fight, but they were immediately hacked to death by the fierce warriors. And this time, those steppe barbarians were completely defeated. No one dared to fight anymore, and they were all bent on escaping the death zone.

This time, when Dip recruited knights of the Knights of the Holy Spring along the way, he also recruited four magicians and more than two dozen magic apprentices by the way. Of course, these magicians are also better than nothing, and they are all new first-level magicians. So the only ones who can use "Flying" are Simon and Zaha.

When the two men appeared in the air, they immediately began to fire support. Dipu was very generous in this regard, and had already given many magic scrolls to those magicians and magic apprentices. So one by one, the magic exploded into the crowd of the steppe barbarians, and they were screaming wolves.

However, this bombing has sparsed out the steppe barbarians. With room to move, they were finally able to let go and escape. The speed at which the steppe barbarians run is actually very fast. At short distances, it is comparable even to a swift war horse, and a warrior without a horse cannot catch up at all.

At that moment, Thompson shouted, "Follow me!" and flew off to the back of the prairie savages. When Dip saw it, he immediately went with him. Simon and Zaha, who had no goal for the time being, also followed.

The four of them flew nearly a mile away and landed in the ranks of the steppe barbarians who were fleeing. A fierce battle ensued at once, and they stood in the way of a torrent of steppe barbarians like a huge rock...... (To be continued.) )
